Illustrated children's book

A long time has passed since I published the last post, but I raisefrom the ashes again, like thePhoenix.In all this time some interesting things had come, a Storyboard Masterclass (with Sherm Cohen ) and new ideas and projects that have appeared.

One of this projects, whichIamdedicatingmost of myfree time, ismy firstillustrated children's book. Is a pedagogical book aimed at children between 4 and 10 years. I explain in a simply and clearly way a disease that affects a part of the population and it is difficult to understand sometimes, adults too. In my familywe also haveaperson affectedwith this disease.

At the momentI cannot give more details, butthe bookwill be publishedearly nextyearin Norwayand a littlelater indigitalversion for therest of the world.

I am veryexcited about this project,andsacrificingmysociallife for it...but you know, it's what you haveif you are and illustrator or animator. :) And after the book...well, we talked aboutcreating anApp with the same story,with animationsand games, butthat is anotherproject andI'll talkabout itin a few months.
